Created attachment 314794 [details] /root/.virtinst/virt-install.log Description of problem: I had the bug previously reported under https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=453260 , I applied the suggested patch and I got another problem and this is under virtinst and virt-manager so I assume its a libvirt issue. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): xen-runtime-3.2.0-14.fc9.x86_64 xenner-0.41-1.fc9.x86_64 xen-libs-3.2.0-14.fc9.x86_64 xen-devel-3.2.0-14.fc9.x86_64 virt-manager-0.5.4-4.fc9.x86_64 python-virtinst-0.300.3-7.fc9.noarch libvirt-python-0.4.4-2.fc9.x86_64 libvirt-devel-0.4.4-2.fc9.x86_64 libvirt-0.4.4-2.fc9.x86_64 kvm-65-7.fc9.x86_64 How reproducible: On a Fedora 9 x86_64, Apply patch under https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=453260 and try to install a new Paravirtualized virtual machine. Steps to Reproduce: virt-install What is the name of your virtual machine? node06 How much RAM should be allocated (in megabytes)? 256 What would you like to use as the disk (file path)? /dev/vg00/node06 Would you like to enable graphics support? (yes or no) no What is the install location? http://styx.biochem.wfubmc.edu/mirror/CentOS/5.2/os/x86_64/ Actual results: virDomainCreateLinux() failed internal error Failure while reading monitor startup output: Input/output error Domain installation may not have been successful. If it was, you can restart your domain by running 'virsh start node06'; otherwise, please restart your installation.

Can you provide the /var/log/libvirt/qemu/node06.log file for me

Ah right, its Xenner - i forgot we had this tracked already *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 454616 ***
Fine, should I get the patch https://bugzilla.redhat.com/attachment.cgi?id=311382 and recompile the xenner source rpm after applying the patch ?
Well, I did apply the patch (to libvirtd) and recompiled the rpms and still not working and returning the same error, I know I was not told to do so but thought trying won't hurt.
Hello, It turns out that the Xenner services was not running by default in Fedora 9, applying /etc/init.d/xenner to start on booting fixed this issues so far besides applying the patch https://bugzilla.redhat.com/attachment.cgi?id=311382 . Thanks, /Ahmed Medhat/
